    Glass Jaw Wilder was hurt considerably on numerous occasions by a Fury who was clearly lacking snap in his punches.

    From all accounts, Fury is still hovering around the gym rather than the local speakeasies, which means he'll be even sharper in any potential rematch and may even stop Glass Jaw Wilder.

    Remember, there are levels to this.

    Put it in this context. Fury was down twice. He still beat Wilder. Wilder was lucky to get a draw even with the two knock downs.

    75% Fury? That was the best that Fury has ever looked.

    Wilder still managed to put Fury on his back 2wice so the power needs to be respected. Think about it for a minute, Fury was the superior boxer but still got his chin checked and hit the ground hard, not a flash knockdown but flat on his back eyes to the ceiling. If he pitched a shut out I expect Mayweather vs Pacquiao, not him getting by the miracle of cocaine from a short canvass power nap courtesy of Deontay Wilders left hand.

    Wilder is snaking his way out of the rematch ready to go back to fighting bums. He doesn’t get in the ring with Fury, Joshua or Whyte. He’s done

    When guys lose a ton of weight, they become frail, ala Douglas, Hatton, etc.

    Wilder's power always was, and continues to be, overrated.

    Fury may be more gun shy in the rematch.

    I'm very interested in how it plays out.

    I'm sure Deontay is scared of the big 6ft 9 inch gypsy king. Who has over a 40lb weight advantage, but couldn't put a dent on the bronze bomber's iron mandible. I never seen anything like it. Fury couldn't even take stay on his fight against the cruiserweight Cunningham! Lol big knockout coming for Fury this year!

    Yes after two exhibitions and weighing a hundred stone,75% sounds generous to me.
